Our semi-weekly grilled salmon teriyaki over roasted diced garlic potatoes fits nicely in the magic round bento box ...and I can pass it along from MisterMan to TinySprite now. A single sprig of steamed broccoli, a tiny cup of corn off the cob, and a couple of carrots round out the vegetable section. Strawberries and grapes fill out the rest, and a trio of bunny-shaped Okinawan sweet potato slices adds a shot of vibrant violet. I like the deep sections of this box for my girl, because it's much easier for her to scoop out the food. Do you see the baby pumpkins? I'm trying to get into the fall mood over here, but the summery weather isn't helping. I'm feeling more in the ice cream mood lately... is it cooling down in your part of the world?

Oh yes I've got plenty of chilly breezes for you in Southern Finland Sheri...I'm not sure if summer actually even came this year! So the colorful sun drenched post you make often provides me with a little protection from the oncoming winter melancholies! I wish I could have poster sized pictures of the gorgeous fruit you had this summer! Anyways, beautiful job as always!

yes, cold cold here in Alaska. Today I don't think it got above 25°. Tonight supposed to be down in the low teens! Too cold too soon. We usually don't have such cold temps until December or January. We should have snow by Halloween.

About Me

I am a former research scientist turned stay-at-home-mom of 2 who got started with bento in an effort to help my kids learn that eating healthy and nutritious foods can be fun and cute. I make a bento lunch for my 14yo (9th grade) son & my 10yo (5th grade) daughter every school day, and post the pictures on my sherimiya ♥ flickr photostream. Here in this blog is where I describe each bento, and you'll also get a peek inside our family adventures. Thanks for taking a look, and please let me know what you think ^-^!
